The statistics for this blog reveal that a lot of people end up at my blog looking for two particular things, their queries can be summarized in following lines:
- “How to dress up like a Kashmiri?”
and
- “How Beautiful Kashmiri Girls!
The reason they are directed here:
- My, rather depressing, post accompanying a photograph of an old Kashmiri Pandit woman dressed in traditional wear at a wedding.
and
- My post on fables of kashmiri Beauty. Here, in a long series, I looked inside journals of early western travelers to Kashmir and tried to find out how the stories of beauty of Kashmiri women started and spread in India and around the world.
Both these posts do not offer whta people are actually directed here looking for. Most people looking for beautiful kashmiri girls actually stay on the fable page for maximum 34 secs before they hop on to some other hyperlink.
So…
I am going to offer some more of what no one is looking for:
Taken at Pari Mahal, June 2008
A photographer’s complete set up for the tourists and visitors to dress up like an authentic Kashmiri.there are dresses for man, women, girls, boys and children. Hmmm…those head gears for men look a bit suspect.
A photographer’s display album. Lucky few get featured here. A memento for posterity. You were in Kashmir and look Oooh…so much like a real Kashmiri.
